Daily observations at or near Two Dot Spot, written by hand on the backs of postcards that record with ink and coffee a few minutes of the earth's orbit around the sun. The cards are physically mailed from Two Dot, Montana to those who have requested them...local to local. Ruth Marie Tomlinson

Ten days, one after the other, with
morning wakings and observations assessing what might shape the day. The luxury
of stillness is a retreat from over stimulation. This quietness serves such a
different purpose for me in this 21st century than I suspect it did
for previous inhabitants. People came to Montana looking or something they
didn't have: food, land, opportunity, a way to survive, and/or freedom from
something. And, as with most searching, the unexpected was often found. Was
quietness and solitude part of the bargain?
